Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What does Allah send first?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How does this show Allah's justice?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Qasas is surah 28. Find ayah 59. The key word ummiha means its mother town, its centre. Allah always warns first. He sends messengers to the main towns so the message spreads. Only after people keep choosing wrong does a consequence come.

Fact: Which surah's ayah 165 says messengers were sent so people would have no excuse?

Ages 5–8: Warning signs. Find warning signs at home, like hot or wet floor signs.

Ages 9–12: Kind warnings. Write why warnings are a sign of care.

Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___."

Talk together:

• Why does Allah warn first?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How are warnings kind?
• How do you warn friends kindly?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?
